I'm not sure what firmware you had in the first place when you were trying to jailbreak.
Anyway, if you're stuck, the best advice I can give right now is throw that b*tch in DFU mode, restore to original in iTunes (3.0). Then hit it with the redsn0w again.

Your Aunt may not have any contacts etc if she didn't carry her computer with her, but she can sync up when she gets back to Florida (better than being stuck with the Jobs logo)

she doesn't care about contacts and what not. just needs it updated jail-broken/unlocked.

ok i guess itunes wont work... just installing itunes then reinstalling it ( the latest one... i know a few people had a similar issue and it took a while to fix it.. and figure it out!... so yea try that... and then try and install the firmware again... if not try installing 2.2.1 firmware first
the upgrade it to 3.0 original firmware then jailbreak...

iPhone? ... No?... MYphone!!!
